Karnataka Bypoll Results Today As BS Yediyurappa Faces Big Test

The future of Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa's four-month-old BJP government will be decided today as votes from last week's bypolls are counted. Bypolls were held on December 5 for 15 Assembly seats left vacant by MLAs who resigned in July, triggering the collapse of the Congress-JDS coalition and paving the way for the BJP to come to power. The outcome of these bypolls are crucial for the ruling BJP - they must win at least seven seats to claim a majority in the House, which will have a strength of 224 after the bypolls (two seats are still vacant). The BJP currently has 105 MLAS (106 including the support of an independent candidate) while the Congress has 66 and the JDS 34.
